Deficiency in 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D), the main circulating form of vitamin D in blood, could be involved in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, the possible prognostic relevance of 25 (OH)D deficiency in ACS patients remains poorly defined.
The purpose of this prospective study was to assess the association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D ( levels, at hospital admission, with in-hospital and 1-year morbidity and mortality in an unselected cohort of ACS patients.
n ACS patients, severe vitamin D deficiency is independently associated with poor in-hospital and 1-year outcomes. Whether low vitamin D levels represent a risk marker or a risk factor in ACS remains to be elucidated.Go to NCBI abstract
